Hi Alan

I'm sure I can speak for everyone in saying, a big welcome to the Forum from all of us   We are a friendly, if crazy, bunch!!!

If you go to the CONTACT page of this Forum, you will see a couple of addresses (though I don't think the East Hill one is still current).  These addresses also appear on the E-Newsletter (worth signing up for if you haven't) so I imagine it would be okay to use one.

It's great you are a big fan, and that you are enthusing the next generation! My husband used to dance to ATF whilst holding our daughter when she was a baby! (She's still a fan at 25!)

I hope to meet you both sometime.  Best wishes

Jennie

Hi Alan, a BIG welcome from me also. Great to make new contacts. Jennie is correct, we are all a bit crazy here on the forum, but don't let that put you off writing about whats on your mind !!! We all do.

Probably the best address to write to the band is Peter's one on Mersea Island, as it all works from there. Let us know if you can make it to any of the shows so that we can come and say hi.

Alan, you've just been posted by two of the more fun-crazed (that's an edit!) ladies on the Forum, and they're not alone! However, as you see, they are extremely friendly and mostly harmless, and despite all the nonsense that goes on, they have their roots deep in ATF. There are many others, some with an encycopaedic knowledge of the band, although they sometimes hibernate for long periods. You can sometimes even stir up band members on the Forum, but they sometimes go incognito...

If you're on Facebook, then find the link here under Website information, and you can get straight through to the FB page, and presumably get the band's attention there. Even better, you can see loads of great videos of recent concerts, plus really good photos.

Welcome!

"On Mersea Island, as it all works from there" (please can someone tell me how to make the funky grid to save all the typing?!):

Hi Alan (and Ryan)

welcome to planet ATF

please don't listen to anyone on the forum.  They are all quite mad and clearly in need of some time to think (locked away somewhere with soft walls)

love to one and all

TT
